Local Young Men Should Fill Up Company M.

It is more than probable that Company M will have reached war strength before another week. Since the campaign for new members was started two weeks ago there have been fifty-four recruits. Only 42 are now needed. There will doubtless be some disqualifications-at the physical examinations, but care is being exercised not to enlist any with physical defects. There are in Rensselaer about fifty men within the conscription ages who have no dependents and many of whom will doubtless be drafted. It would certainly be much better for them io enlist now and be a part of the local company (before it is filled up by young men from but ■of the county. The war strength organization will have 12 or 13 sergeants and 16 corporals. Intelligent young men are sure to get these places if they will enlist and get busy qualifying themselves . If they will enlist before Tuesday evening they can be examined by the medical officr who will be here and if accepted they will not have to register. Their training will begin at once and they will be allowed 94 cents each week for attending drill. Don’t delay, young men. Join Company M and help to make an organization that Jasper and Newton counties will be proud of.
